Neck Pain, Tingling Finger Tips, Burning In Neck, Joint Problems. Have Postural Tachycardia. Taking Citalopram

I am having neck pain, tingling from my earlobe to my finger tips and to the center of my chest. The pain is constant, but the tingling comes and goes and can also have a burning in my neck. This is all mostly on my left side, but I do also experience tingling in my right hand. I am also experiencing joint problems and am soon to be turning 55 and female. I have always been active and am not over weight. My symptoms have been on going for at least 8 months. I have been diagnosed with Postural Tachycardia Symptom approximately 5 years ago and have been taking Citalopram 40 mg per day, for that. When my joint pain started, I was diagnosed with osteopenia and am taking Alendronate 35 mg. once weekly.

Hi, it appears to be the cervical spondylosis, I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
You may need to have M.R.I. of the neck, for confirmation.
I to my patient with such symptoms prscribe neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and one injection every weak. Thank you.
